Re: The ultimate goal of Man Of Steel and what it means to be Superman.

Wow, this is just so off. Superman does not rise above humanity. He embraces humanity and his place amongst us. If Superman saw himself above humanity, if he thought himself greater then it, he would be Zod or Darkseid or Luthor.

The DC universe has shown us jealousy, greed, selfishness aren't simply human traits. They are prevalent in all intelligent life. Kal-El is simply the best of us. Like his fathers, Bruce Wayne, Wally West, Hal Jordan, Diana and others.
